Not really, there was traffic, but the profit was not so obvious as it is now in hindsight. Engaugement as a metric did not exist, not sure the term clickthrough did either. Investers were, in general, not the same people with the technical understanding to see this future. There are similar areas of business today, transformative, and underfunded because the value is too far in the future for most investors.
